That looks great! I totally thought it was already finished.  I have one question/suggestion, the outside is nice and rounded so did you think of possibly grinding/sanding down the outer corners of where the amps go?  I noticed the corners where you stretched the fleece near the bottom and the top center.  Just a thought, it looks real nice.

i thought about sanding that down..but i kinda liked the wya it looked. cant really explain why..but i see your point. I thought the sharp angles broke up the long arc on the sides..added some flare. Thanks for the suggestions though..keep em coming!

the amp rack only has 2
ther will be no flex at all..i mean..i can flex the fiberglass on the box..but i dont see the point in making it "bullet proof".   The sub box is at 10 layers right now..cause the subs are gonna be hit with 1500 watts RMS. But the amp rack is only 2 layers at this point and i decided that was enough..im putting the second coat of bondo on later tonight..then sanding..then spot putty..then primer..then to body shop in the A.M.   
More feedback??

Thats the kind of job people will definately drool over!  That would be an excellent car to use as a sample for future customers.

Keep up the great work!

Thanks..thats the exact idea. Im a new business in town..and as you may know..small towns have tons of people that talk smack about something they dont know. So findind a customer to spend some real money on a major system will shut the mouths of the aprehensive!!.    But i'll keep you updates on the progress...i'm planning on having it done wihtin 7 days.
Thanks agian
Peace

howd you get the individual amp boxes to stay in place? just screw in through the corners or what?
